Sampler Sneak Peek...

Welcome dear needlefolk friends!

Hope you enjoyed a great week!

This week flew by so fast, 

Tuesday was especially a busy one for

my entire family~

~ husband had an eye appt. at Mayo in Rochester, MN

~ youngest son Samuel started a new job!

~ oldest son and his family left for a two year

assignment in Mauritania, Africa

~ I had an appointment for my yearly physical

The rest of the week seemed to be a 

complete blurrrrr!!!!

~:::~

My sampler in progress has visited many 

waiting rooms this week!

How about a little sneak peek...

Coming Soon...

"Heart of Wisdom" Sampler

This sweet little sampler will be available

through my Etsy shop in about a week!

Stitched on 32ct Vintage "Buttercream" by

Lakeside Linen

Only two lovely overdyed thread colors 

are used throughout the entire sampler...very

reminiscent of early samplers! 

~:::~

It's hard to believe tomorrow we

will be welcoming in the month of July!

The place we call home...Our Farm,

 taken this evening as it bids farewell

 to the month June!

My short commute to work...from the 

farmhouse ~ across the driveway ~ to my Studio!

~:::~

While out on a weekend drive we came across a

site that we have never experienced in our entire lives!!!

It all happened when a mama deer ran across

the highway in front of Sam's truck, she then

ran down into the field where her fawns 

were waiting for her!

By the time Sam quickly spun the truck 

around, this is what we saw...

O my goodness, thank heavens the whole family

is safely reunited, we still can't believe we were able 

to get pics of the fawns nursing!!

It may look like there is only one fawn,

but there really is two!!

Mama finally started getting nervous...

...it was finally time to seek shelter!!

~:::~

Another road worthy shot,

was this beautiful old stone church on the hill...

So peacefully tucked into a wooded hillside!

week and came across a lovely pair

of Hare/Rabbit scissors...

Hare scissors in my Etsy Shop.

cross stitch, needlepoint or quilting.

Only ONE pair available!  Sold...thank you kindly!

This past week we enjoyed much cooler

temps and less humidity...yay!

We've also had lots of rains the last few

days...love the sound of thunder & lightening!

Sam captured this outstanding rainbow over

our farm fields!

I'm always amazed at the big puff balls that

are created when Dandelions go to seed!

Got this great shot while passing through one

of our local small towns!

Studio News...

I'm so excited to start stitching on a new sampler 

that I just finished designing last night.

After supper, I'll be pulling threads and 

choosing the linen, hoping to start stitching 

later tonight!

If all goes well, I'll be sharing a sneak peek 

early next week!

On Sunday, we're planning a picnic lunch 

down by our favorite lakeside spot...

I'll be taking my sampler with me, 

hope to make lots of headway!

Look what crossed my path on my

way home this morning...

This twisty curvy country road is called

Swamp Road, as I came around one of the 

tight curves...this confused looking deer was 

just standing in the middle of the road!

She looked at me, then did a little dance for me

by turning in circles a few times, then

continued to just look at me!

I finally rolled my window down a 

told her to get back into the woods where

it's safe...she finally ran!

~::~

This past week we were on a country 

drive in Amish country...

This was so enchanting...a quaint village 

like cluster of individual shops!

Love the charming old shed at the entrance!

Each little building sold different things!

There was even an animal petting area by the barn!

Each building was painted a bright cheery color,

flower gardens, and a sitting area!

~::~

Sharing with you one of my 

favorite refreshments during these

hot humid summer days...

Sparkling water with freshly cut mint & squeezed

lime in a fancy old glass, feels like a guilty

pleasure, but it's not...Zero Calories!

FARM SHOP...
